Trying to Fool the People
"Hht affidavits of prejudice hav been filed by local litigant
against Circuit Judg Harry D. Norton, during the paat few week.
A far as local attorney can deurmlne, never In the history of
Jurisprudence In Jackson county have so many affidavit of
prejudice been filed against a circuit Judge In so short a time.
The affidavits are described as a whole-sal lack of confidence."
Medford Mews, 6ptmber 31, 1MJ.
DOUBT if a more perfect example of the tactics era
" ployed by the morning paper to maliciously and unfairly
arouse public sentiment against Judge Norton, could be imag
ined than the above, broadcasted on its front page last Wed
nesday. What will the average reader of that statement conclude
and what does the News EXPECT its readers to conclude?
Obviously, that where so many litigants, and so many
attorneys, have lost confidence in -the honesty and integrity
of Judge Norton, and given evidence of it, in so short a time,
there MUST BE justification for such a feeling, and his removal
must represent a widespread demand not only among members
of the local bar, but among the people at large,
WHAT ARE THE FACTS 1
THE facts are : Seven of the
HmA V... . it.-
..wo iuu uj. uiio mnu mo omy active memoer or trie bar
in Jackson or Josephine county who did not publicly express
confidence in Judge Norton Attorney M. 0. Wilkins of Ash
land, and the News' candidate for District Attorney.
JJOW about the many litigants? In six of these cases there
was only one litigant, claiming prejudice, and that litigant
was the Medford Daily News itself. The seventh was a timber
logging ana truck, case also REPRESENTED hv Mr. Wiltin.
Where does the eighth affidavit, of prejudice come in!
uourt records show this wag filed SEVERAL MONTHS AGO
by Earl Fehl,' in the Niedcrmeyer case.
CO THERE YOU ARE1 "A wholesale lack of confidence
shrieks the News on its front page. ' Why f Because one
attorney, M. 0. Wilkins, and two litigants, Earl Fehl and the
raoatorrj jjany isewg, say so.
Wilkins, the ONLY practising attorney not signing the bar
association expression of confidence in judge Norton, or en
dorsing that action: Earl Fehl. the ONLY candidate for nffirft
publicly FAVORING bia recall; (he News, the only newspaper
in Southern Oregon ADVOCATING his recall.
Wholesale lack of confidence 1 We realize this righteous and
self sacrificing trio, the News-Wilkins-Fehl triumvirate have
an excellent opinion of themselves, but seriously, isn't that a
RETAIL rather than a WHOLESALE order!

facts, continues as it has so many weary months as it promises
to continue until election.
Can it be the people of Medford and Jackson county are
such dupes such easy marks as those who employ such tactics,
ASSUME!
Can it be that such a statement as the above, so utterly false
in its conclusions and implications, can be put over, either
politically or any other way.
11TE DON'T BELIEVE IT. And n that belief-and in that
faith the Mail Tribune is going to continue its course,
nailing falsehoods whenever they appear, giving the people the
truth, as it sees thS truth j letting the chips and the political
libel suits for $100,000 FALL WHERE THEY MAY!
A "Malicious Falsehood"?
A FEW words more along the same line another example
" of the tactics by which this News-Fehl-Wilkins triumvirate
hopes to gain oontrol of the government of Jackson county.
The Ashland Tidings, about a week ago, published the fol
lowing statement i
"Every attorney in Jackson and Josephine county, with the
exception of M. 0. Wilkins, signed an expression, of confidence
in Judge Norton."
Mr. Wilkins promptly nailed this as maliciously false, "as
blatant a falsehood as has bssa published in Jackson county in
years," and as convincing proof listed the following attorneys
who also did not sign :
W. G. Trill, E. S. Van Dyke, M. Of Wilkins, Q. O. Taylor,
Allison Moulton, R. S. Anderson, Mrs. A. C. Ahlf, O. S. Brown,
A. M. Soliss and W. Patterson 10 attorneys including the
candidate for District Attorney himself.
e
" A LL of which, we are glad to say is true. Those 10 attorneys
did NOT sign the declaration, but the reasons are inter
esting. This expression of confidence was from the Southern Oregon
Bar association, and could, of course, only be SIGNED BY
MEMBERS OF THAT ORGANIZATION.
Mr, Wilkins is not a member of that association, neither is
0. S. Brown, A. M. Soliss or W. Patterson which renders the
mention of their names in this connection in legal parlance
"incompetent, irrelevant and immaterial."
HOW ABOUT THE OTHER SIX NAMES!
Everyone of the six has expressed to the Mail Tribune, in
the most emphatic terms, complete confidence in Judge Norton,
his legal wisdom, his absolute hons!y and fairness. Each
one has expressed unqualified opposition to the effort for his
reoall. . Unfortunately space does not permit publishing all of
their statements, but the following communication from Edward
S. Van Dyke, Grants Tass attorney ia typical of them alii
TO Tint EDITOR:
I noticed on thu front page of the Dally News for September
IS the publication of an article entitled "Wllklna Calla Falsehood In
Ashland paper" at the conclusion of which I a list of names of
Jarkson and Josephine county attorneye who, according to M. O.
Wilkins, did not sign the statement of confidence In Judge H. D.
Norton. Included In this list of names la my own name.
I desire to elate that the only reason I did not algn the eald
eipreaalon of confidence le because I did not hav the opportunity.
Had the etatement been submitted to me for my elgnature I ahould
have been moat willing and happy to have added the weight of my
endorsement, whatever that might have been.
1 hav the utmoat confldenc In the Judicial learning, wisdom
and Integrity of Judge Norton and regret that my name was no
subscribed to th atatement of confldenc.
KOWAltD . VAN DYKg, Atty-
O rants ras, Oregon.
IN other words the impression is given by Mr. Wilkins' com-
munition there are members of the bar association in Jackson
and Josephine eov.nties who refused to sign this expression of
confidence." The exact reverse is true. Npne refused to sign it.
eight affidavits of prejudice
i . , ....
Some did not sign because they were not visited, but everyone j
subscribes to that vote of absolute confidence in Judge Norton
that the resolution expressed. !
So that statement by the Ashlnnd Tidincrs by a very slight
change becomes not a malicious falsehood, but the alisclutc
truth.
'The change makes the statement read:
Kvery member of th Southern Oregon Bar Association and
every attorney In Josephine and Jackson counties, in ACTIVE
PRACTICE haa algned the eipresslon of confidence in Judge Norton,
or publicly expressed agreement with aame. except the Independent
candidate for district attorney, M. O. Wilkin.

KEROSENE (COAL OIL) AS- A REMEDY
From a eympoelum of our readers
on th remedial use ef kerosene
(coal oil):
Cramp In Leg.
Being of aed-
ntary habits,
when I go
troutlng or
hunting,
a r a m p a will
a u d denly de
vlop during
the night, a
p r om I n e n t
knot forming
in the leg mus
cles, t have
often rolled out of bed to the
floor, over the atand, and seized
th kerosene lamp, removing the
chimney, unscrewing burner and
dabbing the wick eoaked with
kerosene on the cramp. In two
or three minute this seems to
bring relief and I go back to
bed aerene and happy. J. Q.
This la harmless at any rate, and
Interesting If not convincing. It Is
not convincing to my mind, because'
ao many readers have reported that
they obtain relief from auch leg
cramps by merely pressing the balls
of the feet against the foot of the
bed, or by getting out of bed and
walking about for a few momenta.
Eczema.
Our eldeat son broke out with
eczema at the age of four montha
and In spit of medical care the
trouble persisted It waa the
weeping kind until he was past
two yeare old. Prom then until
laet winter (he la now 13 year
old) h waa free from It. But
owing to th depression we used
a great deal of oatmeal, which, i
believe, caused It to break out
again on both lege. We tried
various curea to no effect
Notwithstanding the depression;
but on using the kerosene no
ticed an Immediate Improvement.
Both leg are now healed and
give him no trouble so long aa
he remembers to grease the spot
before going In swimming. If he
falls to do that there la some Ir
ritation. (Mrs. J. M. C.)
Several readers have reported appar-
ren oenent in obstinate eczema
from application of kerosen (coal
oil, refined petroleum. -
First Aid for Burns.
Kerosene oil applied to a burn
will relieve the excruttatlng pain
Immediately and prevent blister
ing. Th soothing effect Is like
magic. If the feet or hartda are
burned aubmerge them In the oil.
If face or body sop It on gently
and do not cover only to keep the
burned surface wet with the oil
until relieved. (Mrs. O. P. 8.)
Th lady may be quit right about
everything except the prevention of
blistering. If a burn la a second de
gree burn nothing under heaven can
prvnt blistering. If burn Is a
third degree burn, nothing can pre

SEATTLE SPEECH
Intention To Support Demo

After Praise For "Expon
ents Of Radicalism."
SEATTLE, Sept. 34. (AP) The
fVntt.e Time unnouncvd editorially
today that Its "desire and Intention
to aupport Mr. Rdbaevelt lor the
presidency, was, to mxy the least.
weakened by his Seattle speech."
A front pup editorial, signed by
Col. C. B. Blethen, and captioned
"Hard on the Stomach." denounced
Oor. Roosevelt for his praise during
a speech here of Homer T. Bone,
democratic nominee for United States
senator and Marlon Zioncheck, demo
cratic nominee for congress from the
first district.
Radical Exponents
The editorial referred to Bone and
Zloncheck as "exponent! of radical
ism." "It can mean but one thing." the
editorial said, "Rooeerelt Is either i
willing to tolerate radicalism, or he 1
plans to use It to his own advantage. !
only, later, to disown it. j
"In either case, the Ttmee' faith in
the man la badly shaken."
The editorial asked whether Rooec-,
Telt's endorsement of Bone and Zlon-
check was "an accident" or whether ;
he had been led by hi local political 1
advisers "into a monumental error :
when they advised Indorsement of
radicalism. j
Mist HepndUte Advisers 9 j
"Following theee as Inevitably 'as ;

tinned, "it will be necessary for Mr

gree burn 1 charring or destruction
of skin or deeper tissues.
Several other readers submitted
legends or second hand reporta of re
markable remedial uses of kerosene
oil, but we must exclude hearsay and
confine this symposium to first hand
personal experiences.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Birthmark.
I have a nevus or birthmark on my
back below my right shoulder blade.
Can you tell me any way to conceal
thla without fear of the purple show
ing thru? (Miss J. S. A.)
Anawer Why not cover It with a
disc of black "court plaster and pre
tend It Is Just a beaut., spot? The
mark can be removed by a good phy
sician, or rendered comparatively In
conspicuous. Or perhaps you can keep
a oat of flexible collodion on It.
tinted to match the normal skin. A
fe"- drops of ichthyol may be used to
tint the collodion.
Too Late. t
I am 40 years old. Could not af
ford a child when I first married, aa
I had to go to business. Now that I
am In a position to have one my hus
band and family think I am too old
. . . (Mrs. D. W.)
Answer So far aa chlldbearlng Is
concerned a woman la as old aa she
feele. Often It happens that when
thla has been put' off for several
years, It Is impossible wh?n at last
the reluctant parents decide to chance
It. I can only assure you that in ac
tual practice women 35 to aoyeara
of age bearing a first child usually
have a normal, easy delivery. Do you
feel like showing them you're not an
old woman?
The Ignorance of the Wiseacre.
Maybe my Intelligence is of a low
order, but I must differ with you on
worms and sugar. The common tape
worm prefers meat and sugar In his
diet. I suggest that the combination
In quantity of the two makes a good
culture medium for the worm to
start, particularly In a weakened con
dition of the human body . . (S.P.M.)
Anawer You said It. Your Intelli
gence la evidently of a high order,
but your Ignorance Is as deep aa that
of all the wiseacres. A tapeworm can
"atart,t only when the human host
Ingeats the larva of the worm In raw
or underdone beef that hnppens to be
"measly," that. Is. Infested with the
tapeworm larvao. If tapeworm is fond
or sugar, it la odd that the adult stage
prefers the alimentary canal of man
and the larval atage the muscles of
cattle. It doesn't matter what food
tapeworm prefers. The quantity of
food la Insignificant In any circum
stance. (Copyright, John P. Dllle Co.)
only a few months ago anticipated he

"We surely want a new deal," It
said. "But we don't want a deal from
the very bottom of the pack."
The Times' announcement of sup
port Immediately after the democrat
ic national convention of Governor
Roosevelt, occasioned c o nslderable
comment among politicians as the
paper had not aupported a democrat
ic presidential candidate since 1916
when It supported Woodrow Wilson.
The Times also supported WlUlam
Jennings Bryan In 1896 and 1900.

II. G. Wells writes and the
John Day . company prints a
booklet called "What Should
Be Done Now!"
Many Americans) especially
politicians, would like an an
swer to that. You" might like
to know what H. G. Wells
recommends.
First, world-wide general in
flation (of money) for lighten
ing debt and encouraging en
terprise. Two, a bold expansion of
public employment and collect
ive buying. Three, readjust
ment of tariff barriers.
Four, nations adopting these
measures would disarm as re
gards one another and arrange
to proteat each other against
outside violence.
Also necessary is "the con
version of the common man to
a snne economic faith and help
ful acquiescence in broad meas
ures." All simple and very difficult.
Read Admiral Sims calls the 8pan-t&h-Amerlcan
war pension system "a
steal of the nastiest kind and an out
rage on the American taxpayer."
He says the war lasted 114 days,
fewer than 400 were killed, fewer
than 5,000 died of wounds and dis
ease. More than 337,000 of the 380,
000 In United State forces are draw
ing pensions now, amounting this
year to S119.000.000.
War Is expensive, especially when
you pay the bllla that follow It.
All the Improvements that thla
country needs, with billions to spar,
could be paid for with the money
that the big war la still coating the
United States.
Sir Arthur Eddlngton, a learned
astronomer from England, aeeka, on
the radio, to popularise thla theory
that the universe la expanding "like
th swelling of a rubber balloon."
He has contempt for scientists who
say the universe Is only ten thousand
million year old. It la a hundred
times older than that, according to
Eddlngton, and you will be Interest
ed to learn that "through calculations
mad with purely physical data, us
ing the ratio of curvature of empty
space, and the number of particles In
the universe, he finds that "the ob
served recession of galaxies is normal."
Ita a pleasure to know that the
universe Is expanding. The more
room the better.
It la even more pleasant to know
that this little earth will last at least
a hundred million yeara longer with
men living on it.
That ahould give ua time to aettle
many problems, considering that we
escaped from the late stone age only
twelve thousand yeara ago.
A long suit of the government
against the sugar Institute, made up
of great American sugar manufact
ure, enda after aeven months and
costing the government S90.OO0, th
companiea 11,700,000. Presently the
learned Judge Mack will give hi de
cision.
In connection with sugar the work

Peru. Mexico. England and other
countries send sugar refined, ready

If the United Statea continue buy

M
We use more sugar than any otheb
nation and augar producing nation
should be satisfied to send us raw
sugar, letting American workmen re
fine It and get their share of the
business.
President Green of th American
Federation of Labor ahould b Inter
aated In that, apart from union mat
ters, In plt of union objection to

The important thing la that articles

Hew York City plans housing pro
jects in congested district, tearing
down old rookeries, building nineteen
rtory buildings to cost t73.000.000.
Th government would supply the
money from that prolific "reconstruc
tion" fund.
Anything that gives work and puts
money In circulation 1 welcome. But
it 1 probable that workera will want
to move out of cities more and more.
City buildings where workera would
pay 113.50 per month per room, are
not exactly cheap. Suburban houses
with room for a family and a garage,
costing three or four dollara a week
for th whole house, are what th
peopl need. They could be pro
vlded. The French say ''everything passes."

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24. (API-
Increased rates on parcel post mall

The postoffioe department, calling
attention to tne new rates which were
approved In February by the Inter
state commerce commission, said to
day that th increases were Intended
to cut into the annual deficit this

revenues and expenditures for 1S30.
the department figured that parcel
post was being handled at a net loss

While there was a material loss on
parcels In the first three zones, those
beyond were handled at a profit. The
new scales are designed to equalize
the rates. No change Is to be made
on parcels for local delivery.
The increases will run from one to
three cents, depending upon weight
and distance.
The new rates are: First and sec
ond zones, 8 cents for the first pound
or fraction of a pound and 1.1 cents
for each additional pound or frac
tion: third none, 9 and 2 cents, re
spectively; fourth zone, 10 and 3 5
cents; fifth rone, 11 and 8.3 centa;
sixth none, 12 and 7 cents; seventh
zone, 14 and 9 cents;, eighth zone, 15
and 11 cents.
The postage on parcela mailed on
rural routes for local delivery will be
3 cents less than at these rates and

Tall IVngs the Dog.
To the Editor:
In your review of th Oov. Roose.
velt's views on public utllitlea, you
agree with htm aa do the great ma
Jorlty of voters, but the question
arlsea have we reached the point
where the people do not get
"square deal?"
In the Literary Digest of July S,
1930. Is the statement that the Am
erlcan delegate to a power conference
In Berlin said in a speech that elec
tric power was sold In thla country
for fifteen times Its cost. Thla arti
cle seems to have escaped th edi
torial eye as I never saw a reference
to It In the Mall Tribune. Brisbane
says there are five towns In Kansas
making no city tax levy because of
their profit on public utilities.
.You allude to the slogan "Free
lipht and power at no cost to th
tax payer." The Idea I to pay for
electrlo power plants as Medford 1
paying for her city water plant by
Income from users Instead of a tax
levy. The system of control haa al
ready failed; the talf wags the dog.

Clean l"p the Highway.
To the Editor:
Papers blown from fruit trucks and
rubbish blown from the Southern
Pacific right of way across from
the fair grounds make the Paclflo
highway look like a clrcua ground
the next day after the circus.
I hope this communication aid In
having these eyesores removed.
P.. A. BEST.
